Wax Buyers Club

I don't know what I prefer: choose a vinyl that the listener will love and listen to until it wears out its groove, or a record that he would never have listened to without the existence of the Club because in a genre that he's really not used to listening.

In any case, thank you for this feedback.

We will organize a contest to win 3 test press on our FB page at the beginning of February. As we don't have a huge audience, the chances of winning are real. I will come and notify you of the start.
 
A little improvement on Wax Buyers Club website for members. You have now a much better access to your infos. It is in French, yes (sorry). There is some limitations for monthly members via Paypal.

So only a single is on streaming, the album isn’t out until Feb it seems. It kinda gives me vibes of the sort of pleasant mildly psychedelic folk pop of the late 60s. Kinda Birdsy stuff?

Not getting Joy Division out of that one track I’ve gotta be honest. What does the rest of the album sound like @Edd? Broadly similar or so they have a more varied sound?

There is one track here : Vinyle du mois - Février 2021 - Swear I Love You -
and 2 others here
And still one here !

So 4 on a 7 tracks LP. ;)

I think this album is very homogen, quite agree with you about the psych vibe.

Google Chrome has done a pretty good job of auto-translating the site into English, so this page is pretty handy!

Nothing jumped out at me in swaps, so I'm gonna stick with Swear I Love You. I do like the two preview songs, so I'm intrigued to hear the rest of the album.

Thanks! My efforts extended to searching for the band on Qobuz and everything bar “Under The Pines” being marked as unavailable 😂

I’ll give these four a listen over the next few days and try to make my mind up!

Not sure about these compilations. Le Chant du Monde is an old French label. They released a lot of folkloric music and protest songs from all over the world in the 60's and 70's. I have a few of them and happy with. I don't know if they are good or not today, I only have Charlie Chaplin OST compilation which is ok but not amazing. My feeling is that they don't give a great importance to the pressing and the packaging but they keep following their history, compiling songs in a some kind of musical archive of a genre, an era, a country, etc...

As a seller, i would say : "go on, those are great!".

As a digger : Picking is great, tracklist for the 5 volumes are great. The pressing is not audiophile, but more than ok. If I had to choose, I woulf prefer one Tone Poet Serie than 2 American Soul Connexion.

Ok, I'm not a good seller.

You may not be a good seller, but you are an honest seller.

Frankly, that would be what i was interested in a series like this. At this price point and mixed provinence of the titles that would be the best one could expect, so i´m tempted. I have the feeling that with 60s and 70s soul a well done compilation often goes a long way, because bands where often focussed on the great singles and not so much on cohesive albums. i had the Sweet Soul Music Series from Bear FAmily Records on CD and that is a stellar series.
